OpenAI has launched always-on AI agents called Dots that autonomously manage tasks across apps using GPT-6 Astra, aiming to build trust and deeper access for enterprises. Gartner warns 70% of companies will abandon vendor-driven forward-deployed AI engineering within two years due to cost and knowledge transfer failures, contrasting OpenAI's optimism.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of AI & ML, and 4 sources have reported it between 29 Sep 2026 and 5 Oct 2026.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Enterprise AI founders must prepare for client teams to demand full control and operational knowledge over AI solutions, as vendor-installed systems risk rejection within two years. You can win by designing AI that empowers client staff rather than locking them into perpetual vendor dependency.
